( Chapter Twenty-one )
Warnings: Warnings from previous chapters may continue to apply, and this chapter does continue to deal with the possibility of character death.
Author's notes: I found a place to break up the chapter, so it's getting posted a little earlier than I planned. All warnings from previous chapters may still apply, including the new one added last chapter, for discussion of possible character death.

Warning: The warnings from previous chapters still apply. In addition, I need to add a warning for talk about a possibly impending character death (meaning that other characters are aware that's a possibility and are going to talk about it).

Author's note: Well, I managed to get this chapter finished a little ahead of a schedule, since I was originally planning to post it next month. So, here's a slightly early update to make up for the late update last chapter. As usual, see previous chapters for warnings.

Author's Note: I'm sorry it took me so long to get this chapter up. I had really bad writer's block for most of December, due to some real life stuff. I'm a little afraid the middle of this chapter suffers from having been written while I was struggling with that, so I hope it will end up being worth the wait. As usual, the same warnings from other chapters continue to apply. (And I guess if someone is reading chapter sixteen, they've probably already seen those.)

Author's notes: I didn't quite get everything that I was hoping to in this chapter. There turned out to be other things that needed to be dealt with first, and I liked where this chapter ended. The conversation that I hinted about in my author's notes to the previous chapter is still coming. The characters are just being stubborn about actually having that conversation.
Warning: This chapter contains discussion of abuse, eating disorders, and an apparent suicide attempt. These all refer back to things that were previously mentioned or that happened in earlier chapters, and nothing graphic is shown in this chapter. However, since I know the mentions can also be triggering for some people, I chose to specifically warn.
